​1. Identify a Recipient

Determine where your box is going to go. It can be a hospital, a fire station, or any other appropriate recipient. We recommend arranging this in advance to ensure they are ready to take delivery when your build is complete.



2. Prepare to Build

Check out our open-source plans on Instructables.com and procure necessary materials. Each sanitizer is estimated to cost between $200-$400 depending on sourcing costs; feel free to have friends, family, and neighbors chip in to help cover the material costs. If you opt to create a GoFundMe to cover material costs, we are happy to share a link on our Donations page - just shoot us a link via email. Include #CleanMaskProject in your fundraiser details to make it easier to find from the GoFundMe page.

​

Please note, while you are welcome to solicit donations to cover material costs associated with your build, Makers may not profit or charge for labor costs associated with a Clean Mask Project box build.

​

3. Build Your Box

Each box should take anywhere from 1 to 3 hours to build, depending on your skill level. This does not include the time required to source materials.

​

4. Deliver Your Box

You will likely have better luck getting your box directly to a medical professional (doctor, nurse, paramedic, etc.) rather than a hospital bureaucrat; a number of medical professionals we have talked to say their hospital would not take on the "liability" of accepting this donation directly. We recommend having this determined in advance of your build.

​

5. Let Us Know!

We really want to know how many of these boxes are being made and getting into the field! When you build and deliver a box, please shoot us an email letting us know how many you built and where they went. Bonus points for pictures, especially if they include happy doctors and nurses.
